    Wiley E Coyote tries to paint on roads all the time and it fails. Just leaving this out there.

    Haha, you make a good point.
    But who knows, I doubt the road runner is the one enforcing parking violations :D

    Okay thread jack time.
    Does the roadrunner have impeccable time or is Wiley E Coyote just an idiot?

    If you look at the contraptions and devices that the coyote comes up with, he’s obviously brilliant. This is a coyote using rockets, sling shots, catapults, levers, etc... the roadrunner has to just be lucky.

Or they hit your trailer/bike and you call the cops for a hit and run... But I’m petty and have had to many shitty neighbors

    It's not cool to longterm park in front of a neighbor's house. The guy and his wife are dirt bags. You may have to just prevent anyone from parking there for awhile. As said, buy a clunker or trailer, and slide it forward as soon as you see him pull out one morning.

    I just bought a house this year with a fire hydrant in front of it.

    NO ONE can park infront of my house (double driveway)

    My last house I used to buy and plate junkers to simply hold the spot.

    I despise people parking in front of my house :)

    This gets annoying too and happens almost every other day. I know its not illegal and I live on a main road. The road widens right in front of my house so people pull over and stop right on that area. It kind of freaks me out a bit because I feel like they are scoping my house out or something. This guy in the pic has been sitting there for at least a half hour. To the right of the picture the next closest driveway is about 200' away. 20200518_145201.jpg

    If the only issue you’re having to deal with is how close they are parking I’d recommend you leave the situation as is. Neighborly feuds are the worst and you can’t really get away from the situation if it escalates. Be the bigger person, it’s not worth it.

    Looks to be a Ford. He’s probably slow and got lost.

    You just need to deal with these people the way a normal person does. Walk buck naked in plain view of the offender and make sure you bend over to pick up those things you dropped, backside to the window. Take your time, you dropped a lot of stuff.

    Tough call because its not a one way, and parking on one side, but yes, yes they are.
